Bythitinae

Bythitinae is a subfamily of viviparous brotulas, one of the two subfamilies in the family Bythitidae. This subfamily is characterised by having the dorsal, caudal and anal fins combined. They are mostly found in temperate to tropical seas, from reefs to the benthopelagic zone, but some species from the North Atlantic Ocean occur in into Arctic waters.[2]

gollark: Hmm, there are MANY unfathomable papers on compression resistant steganography.
gollark: Idea 2: visual steganographic apioform encoding such that they can be hidden in normal images.
gollark: Idea: visual encoding for apioforms.
gollark: In general, at least, none are safe, due to the inexorable march of entropy as the universe runs down.
gollark: Yes.
